Support PowerLine triangle and diagonal line glyphs

See original GitHub issue

VS Code issue showing bad rendering when rendering the glyph from the font: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/163000

We should support custom rendering of e0b8 through e0bf powerline symbols:

Really can’t say which route is better one atm. If we switch to wide by default, we might get issues then from broken prompt scripts always emitting the SP hack. (Or even have to place some sanity code in the renderer to detect that condition and to skip the superfluous filler SP on purpose). Idk, maybe lets just stay at the current quirky mode until it causes follow-up issues?

You mean these ones? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teletext_character_set#Graphics_character_sets

Yep. They not commonly used yet, as they got specced pretty recently (like in current or prev unicode version).
